Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The Miami Heat play in which major U.S. sport?

Answer: Basketball

Since the Heat have joined the NBA, they've won three championships and their rosters have included all-stars Shaquille O'Neal, Dwayne Wade, Glen Rice, and LeBron James.
2. Are you brave enough to make the "Wall of Flame"? What popular restaurant food measures how spicy the peppers are in the dish using the Scoville Scale?

Answer: Chicken Wings

The scale was created by Wilbur Scoville in 1812. It measures the pungency of the chili pepper used in the dish. Watch out for the Komodo Dragon Chili Pepper, number one on the list. Some restaurants will put your picture on the "Wall of Flame" if you're able to eat their spiciest dish.
3. The highest temperature recorded at the South Pole was on Christmas 2011. How "hot" did it get?

Answer: 9.9 degrees F

Good grief if it ever gets above 32 degrees F at the South Pole. We have enough global warning concerns before the South Pole unfreezes.
4. Glenn Frey of the Eagles released what "heat" related song?

Answer: The Heat Is On

Glenn Frey passed away on January 18, 2016. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Eagles. "The Heat Is On" was a Top Ten solo hit for Glenn in the mid-1980s.
5. Which often imitated character actor starred in the 1930s movie classic "White Heat"?

Answer: James Cagney

On Madonna's "True Blue" album, she released a song called "White Heat" that sampled Cagney's voice from the film classic. Timing is everything, Madonna's album release coincided with Jimmy Cagney's death in 1986.
6. Assuming you're at sea level, at what temperatures does water boil on both the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales?

Answer: 212 F and 100 C

As you gain altitude, water boils at a higher temperature. Likewise when you're below sea level, water boils at a lower temperature. Assuming you're at sea level, the temperatures for boiling water remain consistent at 212F and 100C.
7. Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro teamed up for a movie called simply "Heat". In which decade did this crime drama premiere?

Answer: 1990s

In December 1995, Michael Mann directed the story of Neil McCauley (Robert DeNiro) trying to pull off one last heist while Lieutenant Hanna (Pacino) tries to prevent the crime.
8. The temperature of the incubation of reptile eggs affects what about their birth?

Answer: What sex will the offspring be

TSD, temperature sexual determination, comes into play after the egg has been laid. Alligators and turtles are two notable animals whose offspring are strongly affected by the incubation period and the heat of the eggs before hatching.
9. What golf term along with the word "heat" is a serious medical condition?

Answer: Stroke

Heat stroke symptoms include fainting, dizziness, dry skin, cramps, nausea, and rapid heartbeat. Dehydration is the number cause of heat stroke.
10. "Heat Wave" became a Top Ten Motown hit for Martha and her backing group named?

Answer: The Vandellas

Linda Ronstadt brought the song back to life in the 1970s by covering it in 1975 and taking it to number five on the charts. Phil Collins recorded his cover in 2010. Martha and the Vandellas also ruled the charts with "Dancing In The Street".
